Dawkins Admits that they are working on it.

[IzzyPop]

Well, you "scientists" make up your minds which it is.

In the meantime, I'll go with what God said; since He's already made up His.

You do not get it, do you? Science asks questions. Science constantly reexamines everything. If science is wrong, they try again until they get it right. This is all a good thing. Contrast this with your god. Your god stifles questions. Your god wants us to take everything on his word. If your god is wrong, everything falls apart.

 

[Braunwyn]

Well, here's the heart of your misunderstanding. You want an explanation for how the world got here? Fine: a giant dog excreted it.

Blashphemy. Invisible pink unicorns are responsible and I have proof.

"The invisible Pink Unicorns, or I.P.U's are the true masters and creators of the universe. They existed before anything existed. They even existed before they existed. There is no possible way for me to explain how this is possible. We just have to be content with the knowlege that Invisible Pink Unicorns exist, and they are beyond our ability to comprehend. "

Look let us not let these people off the hook, let us stick strictly to the video.

Physists are still working on it but they want to riicule those who say we know when and by whom the world was created.

Dawkins should stay in sleepy old Oxford and work out what needs to be worked on, then he should step up to the plate.

Guess what? They will never work it out because they started out by dreaming.

This thing is sci-fi, there is no proof because it is not true.

No, it is true lies.

Dawkins isn't a physicist.

 

[Paulos23]

Well there you are the man who ruled out God says he does not yet know.

So you get an honest reply from an honest scientist. At least that is more honest then 'Goddidit' where you don't give any evidence for God doing it.

Oh please I've seen that before, O'Reily never "pwns" anyone.

Unless he is talking about loofahs and/or falafels. Then he pwns himself...

 

[speakout]

Dawkins isn't a physicist.

Then he should shut up and wait for his elders and betters to speak.

Actually, physicists don't really ridicule anyone. At most, they humbly "I don't know" or perhaps with regards to the supernatural "it is not investigatable". Only an overblown ego, and possibly insecurity in ones beliefs on the part of the listener, would interpret that as 'ridicule'...

Dawkins should stay in sleepy old Oxford and work out what needs to be worked on, then he should step up to the plate.

Yeah, as another said, Dawkins isn't a physicist. You do realize he was just commenting about an adjacent field, and it isn't a topic of relevance to his own scientific work, right?

Guess what? They will never work it out because they started out by dreaming.

This thing is sci-fi, there is no proof because it is not true.

No, it is true lies.

Jesus weeps, that you've closed your mind before anyone has even proposed a complete hypothesis. He gave you that brain for a reason, you know...

 

[Edx]

Excuse me?

I have a feeling you don't know much about how Hebrew poetry works;

But you dont care about the Hebrew AV, youve said the KJV is the model.

 

[TheBear]

Dawkins isn't a physicist.

Then he should shut up and wait for his elders and betters to speak.

His "elders"?




Do you really think that science is set up like religion, with 'authoritative' hierarchies, 'elders', 'deacons', 'high priests' and such?

 

[AV1611VET]

Oh, how arrogant you are, AV, that you can make such statements without a shadow of a doubt about your god. Who are you, that you can speak for your unknowable deity?

Interesting choice of words.

[bible]Acts 17:23[/bible]

Why can he not speak for himself, if he is omnipotent?

He did --- and they still crucified Him.

Any god that chooses to send such an arrogant and snide messenger as you, any god who raises a mere book above the reason and study of our entire race; such a god is unworthy of our worship. I can only hope that the christian god is not as you make him appear to be.

Then I invite you to come over here and study our jurisprudence, where what's in writing carries more weight than what is merely spoken.

We have also a more sure word of prophecy...

 

[AV1611VET]

Science asks questions.

Science can ask all the questions they want, but when science starts telling us things contrary to what science's Creator said or did, science has overstepped its authority.

 

[AV1611VET]

So you get an honest reply from an honest scientist. At least that is more honest then 'Goddidit' where you don't give any evidence for God doing it.

If you think there should be evidence for God creating this universe, I invite you to take my Apple Challenge and give me all the evidence you think is valid.

Let's see how honest you can be.

 

[AV1611VET]

Actually, physicists don't really ridicule anyone. At most, they humbly "I don't know" or perhaps with regards to the supernatural "it is not investigatable".

It'll be a hot day in Helsinki when you see a physicist in this forum humbly say "I don't know" or "it is not investigatable."

 

[AV1611VET]

But you dont care about the Hebrew AV, youve said the KJV is the model.

I said It is the template --- and I don't care about the original Hebrew because the original Hebrew went the way of the Periodic Table, just like their autograph predecessors.

Get your story straight, please.

 

[IzzyPop]

Science can ask all the questions they want, but when science starts telling us things contrary to what science's Creator said or did, science has overstepped its authority.

So you take the word of 2000 year old shepherds over your own eyes? I hope you never get sick and require an antibiotic instead of an exorcism...

 

[Phred]

If you think there should be evidence for God creating this universe, I invite you to take my Apple Challenge and give me all the evidence you think is valid.

Let's see how honest you can be.

Unlike you? The readers voted and ruled your apple challenge dispatched. You said you'd let the readers decide. Yet, here you are still dishonestly preaching this nonsense.

And you dare to talk to others about honesty?

How can we debate you before you have sorted yourselfs out?

so tell us what happened?

 

[TheOutsider]

Then he should shut up and wait for his elders and betters to speak.

Isn't that exactly what he just did when he said that the physicists are working on it? Is there anything he could have possibly said that would make you happy? Would you rather he made something up?

 

[TheBear]

How can we debate you before you have sorted yourselfs out?

so tell us what happened?

Who is 'we'? Who is 'yourselves'? Who is 'us'? Are we playing skins against shirts?

Here's what happened. You started a thread referencing to the fact that Dawkins doesn't know with 100% certainty that there is no god(s). I'm telling you this isn't news, and that Dawkins has always maintained that the probability of a deity is "highly unlikely" and "very low", and that he never claimed 100% knowledge of the non-existence of deities. I also mentioned that unlike religious authority, Dawkins is just another voice - not infallible, not to be followed or worshiped, and no 'authority'.

So, that's what happened, and where we're at now.
